No, I never read them, I'd rather learn the game myself by trial-and-error
-
I scan them quick and roughly so I have atleast a small idea about what the game is about
-
Yes, I always read them before I start playing

Depends on...

Man, I read this and laugh. So many of you forget that game developers rarely represent the target market. A better and more useful discussion would be one you had with your target market.
With that said, I do believe the best instructions are tied into the first few levels and come up as needed rather then a block of text off the main menu. If you pull down any of the current big-hits on Real Arcade, you will see they all do this.

If anyone has played the game Red, I think that is a decent intro. It takes about 5 seconds to go through and gives you all the instructions.
